Is Bravestarr a spin-off of He-Man?

I have stumbled into a debate in my favorite MOTU/POP/NA facebook group Shadow Weaver's Realm. Apparently it's old news that Bravestarr was a second spin-off of He-Man, but I can't find any info anywhere online stating this.

Oh, I don't know. I think it would be kinda cool if He-Man and Bravestarr (and even Blackstar) were all in the same universe. It'd be neat to tie them all together somehow (plus I wouldn't mind those figures in MOTUC form if it were ever possible). Just my thoughts.

From my youth and hometown when I was a kid...He-Matt and the Masters of the Kunaverse!

The original pilot script was suppose involve He-man and Skeletor. Bravestaff was suppose to exist in the same universe, but Filmation scrapped the idea.

I think its for the best.

I don't remember if Skeletor was there as well, but yes, He-Man would have appaeared in the pilot and Bravestarr was going to be inspired by him.
It's in a old Filmation document. I don't remember if we showed it in the DVD, but I'm pretty sure it was me or Busta disclosing this information

Blackstar, yeah. You could easily have him to have been sent to find and rescue Marlena Glenn.
But Bravestarr's problematic as he's set in the 23rd century as it would had been kinda imagined in the 19th century.

Thanks, Emiliano!

Looks like that LA Times article got it wrong, or maybe both are true? Either way, I'll be renting the Bravestarr DVDs and checking out the extras/documentaries.

But Bravestarr's problematic as he's set in the 23rd century as it would had been kinda imagined in the 19th century.

Perhaps he happens (or could happen) when He-Man & She-Ra go to the future. They meet Rio-Blast & he ends up going back to Eternia with them after they save Primus from the Horde & Mutants. Then Bravestarr could meet He-Man, be inspired by him, & go on to be the newest hero.

...At least it makes sense to me.

(Too bad it was Galoob that made the Blackstar toys instead of Mattel, or we could potentially have all 3 series made in the MOTUC.)
